After quite a bit of communication with our agency, and of course with each other and our families, we have decided that a request for young siblings may be a very long and difficult wait and the need may simply not be there. We made the decision a few months ago that if we did not receive a match for siblings by the beginning of August, we would change our request to siblings OR a single child. Since we are at the top of our agency's waiting list, this most likely means the referral of a single child.
Brandon and I are both at peace with this decision and can't wait to have a family...whether we have one Ethiopian child, two Ethiopian children, or maybe even 20 (ok, maybe not), we know that whatever happens will be our path and I think we are comfortable in that.
Now, where is that referral? :)
Questions? Comments? Referrals to give?

Hi there! Glad to find your blog! How exciting that you're that close to a referral. We are much further down the list (somewhere in the 20's) so we still have a few months to go. Hope you hear good news very soon! I look forward to following the rest of your story!
Oh I hope it's soon! You've waited so long!
